Chapter 4: A foal

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

It was night. The sky had a navy blue color and hundreds of flashing stars were on it. The moonlight reflected on the surface of the water, the wind gently blew, moving leaves and blades of grass, and the mane of Nightmare Moon, which was sat at the lake, the same at which she sat yesterday. She sat with a smile looking at the surface of the water in which the stars, the night sky and herself were reflected. She sat and waited. She hoped to meet Demonic Wing again, the stallion that she helped make some important decision, though... Moon didn't know exactly what he meant. He just said it was a very hard decision and that it was something horrible. He had to kill somepony. The stallion mentioned that he didn't want to kill and he never did it, but...

"Who he had to kill?" - She asked herself. Her calm was immediately interrupted. She turned back, and she heard behind the hill some roars, growls and... Voices. One of the voices was very familiar. Moon quickly flew in that direction. She landed between the trees and watched. She saw a strange, horned creature with wings that holds the Demonic Wing by its throat and press him to the tree.

"I'm asking for the last time... Where is she?!" - The horned creature asked, more pressing him to the tree. Moon knew well that it was a demon and... She also came to the conclusion that the Demonic Wing was also a demon, but... Why he was good? Demons are very evil beings, but he... He was different. She knew now what it was all about. Demonic Wing was probably a new recruit who was about to kill somepony, but... He didn't do it. Maybe he was different. It's possible that when he was born, there was a strange anomaly, so he wasn't like other demons. - "Where is she?!"

Demonic Wing growled, showing sharp teeth and staring angrily at the other demon. - "I will not tell you anything."

"Well, as you want. I was about to kill you, so..." At that moment, the demon's hand which held the black stallion by the throat flashed a red light. Demonic Wing began to fight, growl and tried to bite the attacker. The demon laughed derisively, and at that moment, the red light was blue. Demonic Wing began to do smaller, until... He was a small foal. His voice was childish, but he still tried to fight. - "Sweet dreams, little one." - The demon started taking his life again. A small foal struggled, growled but... After a while, his furious roar turned to cry. Tears flowed from his clenched eyes, and he began to scream in pain and terror. At this moment, Moon attacked the demon. Lightning shot from her horn and hit the demon, who let go of a small foal.

Moon looked at the little Demonic Wing that lay under the tree and cried in pain. When he looked at Nightmare Moon, he looked as if he didn't know her, but... Why? She knew him, and he knew her, but what if...

"Agh... You..." - She heard after a moment. She looked at the demon who tried to get up. She smiled and at that moment her horn began to sparkle. The demon fell to his knees and began to roar in pain.

"And what are you going to do now, bastard?!" - She asked, and her horn began to sparkle more.

The demon looked at her with rage. - "Stop! It hurts!" -

Moon laughed ominously. - "Now you see what it's like to be a victim, huh?"

"Stop, I'm begging you!" - The demon screamed.

The black alicorn frowned. Her horn shone and at that moment the demon just disappeared. Moon approached the little foal, which looked weaker. - "Hey, you're alright?" - She asked.

The foal looked at her. - "Who are you?..." - He asked, then he lost consciousness. Moon was surprised. He didn't remember her.

"He lost his memory." - She said to herself. She looked around, there was nothing around her except trees. She looked at the foal who lay and... He was sleep. Moon knew she couldn't leave him here. She took him on her back and started flying toward Canterlot. When she was flying, she looked at him and smiled. The little one was sleeping peacefully on her back, it captivated her. That's when she felt something very... Very strange. She didn't know why, but... She wanted to protect him. Moon saw her opportunity to become a mother, she wanted to bring him up, to surround this child with her care and love. She turned her head towards Canterlot. When she was closer, she was more excited. However, she didn't know, how her sisters would react to it. Moon was a little bit worried. She knew that this foal was a demon, but... She also knew that he wasn't evil. It was just a little child, who doesn't know where it came from. She only hoped that everything will be fine.
